I'm almost surprised it lasted that long though. I don't use it for any adult transactions, only auctions and paying contractors.

I'm most annoyed by the customer service though. I called them up asking for the reason it had been locked, and after saying he'd go find out the reason and being put on hold for 20 minutes, was told he couldn't give that info over the phone.

Anyway, I know they can lock your account now for even having "inappropriate links" on your website. I should be glad I didn't get the $500 fines they're throwing around now.

I'll have to sign up for a new account with my school email address and a new CC. How annoying

What is everyone else using these days? I've seen a lot of names thrown around but there doesn't seem to be one coming up as the next in line after PayPal.
